Samsung debuts fresh 2View cameras

Shoot yourself in the face with Samsung's new ST600 and ST100, specially designed for self-shot portraits

21 July 2010/6:00BST

Samsung has added a brace of snappers to its “shoot yourself” 2View camera range, each sporting a front screen to make taking those moody MySpace-style profile pics a breeze.

The Samsung ST600 and ST100 have slightly larger front screens than their predecessors, the ST550 and ST500 (1.8-inch compared to 1.5-inch). These screens are activated by a finger tap and take the guesswork out of self portraits.

The two models are fairly similar – both feature a 3.5-inch touchscreen with gesture controls, and both can capture 720p HD video – with the main difference being the zoom lens. The ST600 has a 27mm wide angle lens with 5x optical zoom, while the ST100’s lens starts at 31.5mm but has its 5x optical zoom contained completely inside the body.
